II Falco looks to serve you with the most delicious and finest Italian cuisine in the area. Inspired by the original owners of II Mulino, Gino and Fernando Masci, Bolivar acquired the love for the Italian kitchen. This has given them the experience in creating and mastering familiar pastas such as the wild porcini mushroom ravioli with black truffle cream sauce. From the sea we have branzino cooked in sea salt, as well as fresh seafood with angel hair. For meat lovers we have a choice of delicious veal chops to rack of lamb to PorterHouse Steak. We look forward to providing you with outstanding service and make you feel just like home.

    The food was good overall however the mistake this restaurant made was not disclosing upfront the price of a special entree ie a lamb dish. When the bill was presented to us, we were shocked to learn that the lamb is $65.00. This is almost double the price of most other entrees. The lack of transparency upfront is a poor reflection for this restaurant!

    Il Falco RestaurantResponded on November 7, 2023

    Thank you very much for dining with us! We are sorry to hear your experience wasn't what you expect. We do not tell prices of our specials as it can be taken in an offensive way to some customers. It can come out as us judging that you cannot pay for the dish by telling you a price of a special after you select one. We have been with the same system for 10 years, and my waitstaff is more than happy to let you know all prices of our specials if asked, as we have done in the past as our specials included black/white truffles, lobster, etc. For future reference, in all restaurants be advised to ask for pricing on specials as not all restaurants mention pricing of their specials to their customers unless asked. Happy Holidays!

    Cute restaurant with friendly service, but a disappointing meal. Portions were very small, and and the gnocchi al pesto was terribly bland. The biggest offender was the add-on of grilled chicken to the pesto. 4 minuscule slices of chicken for $8, and it was inedibly bad - tough, chewy, and the flavor was awful. The pollo farcito was enjoyable, but again, a very small portion. Would not dine at Il Falco again.

    Il Falco RestaurantResponded on November 6, 2023

    Hey Fredric, We apologize for your dissapointing experience with us here at il falco. We tend to always ask every customer how is their dinner mid way through their main course and after a meeting with the staff they remember asking your table how is everything and asking if you would like another Whiskey. We served whole breast sliced when chicken is added on to any pasta, and it is grilled at the moment. i have brought this to the attention of my kitchen staff as well to make sure the quality improves everyday. We thank you for this review as it helps us improves our flaws. We hope you have a great holiday season!

    The ambience is terrific. The staff is great. Four of us went and three thought the food was excellent. I thought it was good, but not the best I've ever had. Would certainly go back again and try a different dish.

    Mildly disappointing, but worth another shot. Very nice, cozy interior with a covered outdoor patio in the back. Professional service. Shrimp dish was excellent, the veal was a bit tough and the marinara sauce had a unique flavor. Prices are reasonable, not cheap but not killer.

    The very courteous and attentive servers were quite willing to modify dishes to accommodate preferences and restrictions. We were there for a birthday and they surprised the guest of honor with candles. The dishes were well-prepared, if a tad salty, and the wine list was more than adequate and fairly priced.

    We were seated but not given any menu for a long time (I had to eventually ask). Then when we were done eating, they didn’t come around with the bill, ask if we wanted the bill, another menu, anything. Most of the food was good although it was the worst spaghetti carbonara I’ve ever tasted (my friend agreed). I’d still go back for the other food. Overall the restaurant is fine.

    I wanted a restaurant with history and I got it but my only problem was the bread. Sorry, it was not acceptable. My food was excellent and I will go back. So, please improve that because I love bread. For all I don’t know, the bread was not delivered. See you soon.

    Il Falco RestaurantResponded on December 13, 2022

    Hey, thank you very much for your feedback, our bread is delivered fresh every single day from a italian bakery in astoria. We get 8 batches of bread every day, and we've received comments of the bread not being warm maybe this was something that affected you as well, and the reason is because we serve our bread with oil. But we will take this into account.

    My only gripe and this is nothing against the restaurant. We went during restaurant week and the portions were so small I was ready to eat dinner after I ate there . Restaurant week has become a complete ripoff , I am done trying it. They give you such minimal portions it is a total scam. Il Falco always has excellent food.

    Service was good, noise level is really dependent on the largest table there, was hoping the food would be better, but still enjoyable. Eggplant parm was not better than a good neighborhood pizzaria, so still good, but was hoping for better at an Italian restaurant. Was trying to avoid driving into the city. I think it's on par with Portofino's in Forest Hills. I think their 2nd floor had a better ambiance, but wasn't open for seating. The first floor can get very loud, but luckily for us, the loud group that was there moved out to the patio.

    So bad I feel compelled to write a review. $23 for 3 (mini) cocktail shrimp. That would pretty much be the only thing I’d have to say about this place, if i was not also compelled to talk about the incompetent waiting staff (were they hired earlier in the day?) or the main course that took 35mn to come to our table, stale and clearly microwaved, or the 2 glasses of «  champagne » one flat and the other too sweet to be anything else but cheap prosecco… We didn’t stay for desert. What a disappointment and a waste of a valentines dinner. My wife and I chose to laugh it off because we were getting in a bad mood for falling for this trap. This place is clearly a cash cow for the owner, and this restaurant has no shame nor any respect for its customers. Don’t trust the website or the positive reviews, stay away! $23 for 3 shrimps 😂😂😂
